From The Inside Out
Burning!
From the inside out.
Melting masks revealing tasks,
Of sad faces embracing embers of madness.
Supported and endorsing,
A craze homemade.
Determined to fade until eliminated,
Truth and the reality.
Incapable to reduce to ruin.
Or seduce to produced delusions.
Truth!
Is as truth is to stay unaffected.
By mentalities detected in flames.
Slowly burning away.
From the inside out.
Melting masks revealing faces with tasks.
Of a sad crazed madness.
Burning minds unable to find...
An exit to protect them from the effectiveness,
That has backfired upon themselves.
Without help or rescue,
From supporters who are observed...
Abandoning such tasks.
As fast and as far away from devastation.
Self inflicted.
Homemade.
And burning from the inside out.
Closing mouths.
Silenced.
By their own homemaking,
Of internal violence they started.
Yet...
Could or would not prevent to stop,
A shouting match that lit the flames!
Leaving no one else to accuse or blame,
But themselves.
From the inside out where it began to burn.
Suffocating.
